Are you happy to see these characters from the original trilogy return and is there anyone else you'd want to see come back? I'm rooting for Colossus. It's fitting since he was in the source material and barely had any screen time in the original trilogy. Also, what new characters would you want to see in this one?

So if it follows the original story at all it could be someone's mind going back in time to their younger self. The only options really are Xavier, Beast, Wolverine, Magneto or Mystique right? It would be interesting if each one of them gets a part of a plan from the future to save the past. And it could be used to rewrite history having Wolverine work with the X-Men much earlier. Too bad it would be hard to have that cause the original X-Men born earlier because I'd love for Xavier to bring teenaged Cyclops, Jean, Angel and Iceman together.

Nice. I hope each X-Men members will have plenty of their screen-time in a movie. That's a huge rosters right there, wow. Oh and as for Rogue, for God's sake, make her fly! She can fly on TV cartoons, in comic books and video games but not the movies. Doesn't make any sense.

Hard to give her the power to fly without having her take it from someone else.

Personally, I'd like to see Darwin return. Maybe take a page (no pun intended) from Deadly Genesis and have him be alive in the future having reformed his body after about, thirty years and he's in shock at the way things turned out since he "died" in the first film. And, if he does return, please don't kill him off after his first fifteen minutes (or however long he was in the film) on screen again. But please don't cram too many characters like in the third X-Men film which shall go unnamed.

Apart from the fact that I like Ellen Page, and I liked her and Shawn Ashmore as Kitty Pryde and Iceman, respectively, I don't really like this news. I haven't really liked the news that has made it seem like they're trying to go back to the original trilogy of films and connect it with First Class even further. One of the things I liked most about First Class was that it did something different as an X-Men film and provided a chance to get away from the first trilogy. To reboot the film franchise, if you will. And if I may be completely honest, I also find it a more than a bit disheartening that the general sentiment on here is one of excitement, as if X-Men: The Last Stand wasn't a horrible train-wreck of a film.

And one last thing I want to say is: OMG!!!! WOLVERINE!!!!!!! Yay!!!

Actually, it does make sense. In the comics and even in the Fox Kids cartoon, Rogue was shown to have gotten the ability to fly (as well as her super-strength and stamina and what have you) from Carol Danvers (formerly Ms. Marvel, recently promoted to Captain). However, her contact with Ms. Marvel was too prolonged, which is why she kept those powers, and this also resulted with a copy of Danvers's mind residing in Rogue's for a while. This also helped lead her to defecting from the Brotherhood and becoming an X-Man.

Considering that basically none of that happened in the films, it does make a great lick of sense that she can't fly in them.

Also, and I really hate to be such a downer today and apologize for doing so, but no. Please, no. Wolverine was already the star of the first three movies, as well as his own line of ongoing spinoff films, the first of which was also actually rather horrible. Are we really that unable to make an X-Men movie without having Wolverine star in it? Joss Whedon understood the benefit of only using Wolverine in moderation, and that's something that I'm afraid the filmmakers and people at Fox (and Marvel, considering how completely oversaturated with Wolverine the Marvel Universe has been for a good long while) are not able to understand.

@evilvegeta74: pfff.. Whats the big fuss for Colossus for? He didn't have a big part in the trio, and what I can remember is that he was only in the 3rd one. Sure he looked cool as Colossus, and the graphics for him would probably look way better in 2014 than it did in the 3rd movie. I guess it would be cool :P

Anyways wasn't Rogue cured? Or will the cure wear off like it did to Magneto?

I still remember people freaking out in the second movie when Colossus showed up. Dude's got screen pop.

Oh come now, I guess Singer missed that the best thing about X-men: First Class was that we could finally see some well cast characters. He's a complete moron for doing this. I now I really am worried.

@TheSwordsman: Can you think of many original or famous black X-men apart from Bishop? What a silly thing to focus on because there are so few anyway.

What about Magneto's group? Will they appear? Will Nightcrawler return to see his father, Azazel and his mother Mystique? Will Cyclops get to see Havok? I hope both past and present teams get to work together.

@TheSwordsman: Can you think of many original or famous black X-men apart from Bishop? What a silly thing to focus on because there are so few anyway.

X-men/mutants are metaphors for black Americans with Magneto being representative of Malcom X' and his ideology and Professor X's as a representation of Martin Luther King Jr and his. It is reprehensible for their not to be more black interesting mutants, or any other ethnicities for that matter.

Are you seriously going to use the fact that comic teams typically lack diversity as a defense against movies about comics not having enough diversity? So there is blatant bigotry in comics: ok, so lets continue with that self-same bigotry in the movies. Why do anything even remotely responsible to try and change that.

There aren't many famous black x-men because they aren't created or they are not written well or given enough positive exposure or they have lame powers and names and costumes..And, yeah, that guy in X-men first class, the one who could generate tornadoes, yeah he was really famous, that's why they had him in the movie. Can't remember his name though or remember reading about him in, like, anything, but, yeah, he is a really famous character.

I guarantee you that if the situations were reversed and there were very few white superheroes and most superheroe movies had no white superheroes or one token white hero you would be upset. You may lie and say you wouldn't be but you would. You simply lack any sort of empathy for anyone else, much in the way a psychopath does.

Random mutant named Carol comes up to Rogue and shakes her hand... Just then her powers come back and she cause the death of Carol who had flight and strenght powers. Fixed!

@GothamRed: @mattwing87: Considering that this is a time travel story it is possible that X3 could be written out of history.

I think it's strange there's been no word on bringing back Havok or Banshee. Has Xavier's first class graduated already? Surely they'll bring back Kelsey Grammer, to have the two Beasts share screen time. Imagine how the younger McCoy will feel when he sees his older self and realizes he's going to be blue and furry forever.

I also feel like Darwin has to return to put the lie to his death. Clearly his adaptive power would have allowed him to survive Shaw's attack. That's kind of the whole point of his power.

@TheSwordsman: There are more black mutants portrayed well in the comics then there are Avengers. In fact I'd say the X-Men are one of the most ethnically diverse teams in comics. It's just that the movies so far have focused on the earliest X-Men from the comics which were mainly Caucasian.

While there are more in the x-men rather than the Avengers there are still not enough in comic books in general and definitely not in superhero movies nor ones that have their own movies.

Earliest x-men and mutants huh? huh? Rogue? Pyro? Kitty Pryde? Mystique? Havok? These were hardly the earliest ones. not even close Nor were the villains the earliest ones: Azazel, Sebastian Shaw, Generic whirlwind guy, Emma frost? These are hardly early villains such as Magneto was. Your argument is invalid. With the exception of Storm and Darwin, who was the most interesting power-wise and they killed him off with something that he should have been able to easily adapt to, there were no other black heroes or villains. And why kill him off? He handled Havocs other blasts just fine: internal armor, absorbing the energy, expelling it, turning to Adamantium, there were so many ways he could have and should have survived. They chose to have all whites except for one woman and one they killed off early because of bigotry, blatant attempts at social engineering and insecurity. Period. Trying to pretend that it is anything else at this point is simply ludicrous.
